So Lantern Theater in Philadelphia has apparently screwed up royally with a racist “Japanese-inspired” Julius Caesar. Makoto Hirano, member of the Team Sunshine Collective and “actual Japanese person,” has penned a great response that should really be rules for keeping any of your shows from being racist.
Lantern Theater has issued this non-apology:
“One of the major goals of Lantern Theater Company has always been to foster dialogue and discussion among our audience. We have a long history of hiring actors of all backgrounds for Shakespeare roles, but our production of Julius Caesar has offended some people, and we want to better understand their concerns. I have reached out personally to Makoto as well as other members of the local theater and Asian American communities and am interested in hearing all points of view. I welcome the opportunity to further discuss diversity and cultural representation in the theater with anyone who has an interest in an open and direct exchange.”
Lantern, guys, you didn’t create a dialogue, you straight-up didn’t have one with ANYONE who could have helped you not make these mistakes, and that’s how you got into this mess.

The Villains of DS9
Dukat/Weyoun/Damar – Marc Alaimo/Jeffrey Combs/Casey Biggs : The Villains of DS9
Their Chemistry, their moments together unlike any other in the Star Trek Universe, Their complex relationship, the Frenemies of Star Trek Universe.
Here are some pictures of the Villains of DS9 outside the world of Deep Space Nine
I want them to form a boy band.
I think they already have one. Or at least I’ve seen photos in which Casey and Jeff are clearly singing. Some involve guitars, a few involved tuxedos, I have no idea what was going on in any of them…

It’s the Star Trek Rat Pack~, in which they sing charming Star Trek Parodies of Sinatra songs and others, plus some original stuff, I think? Casey, Armin, Jeff, Max and someone else who I shamefully do not recall because he mostly did background and one-off aliens and I’m a bad person. Jeff has a song about being a fuck ton of characters, Armin sings a version of the Rules of Acquisition, Casey sang about bad things happening to Damar? They performed and sold CDs at Star Trek Las Vegas. It was fucking HILARIOUS.

Sakhmet, whose name means “the powerful one,” was a warlike, bloodthirsty goddess. She was usually portrayed as a slender woman with the head of a lioness. As the daughter of the sun-god Re, Sakhmet waged war against both the enemies of the sun-god and the enemies of the king, who was the “physical son of Re.” This head of Sakhmet shows the goddess wearing both the solar disk and the uraeus, the fire-spitting cobra that symbolized kingship (the head of the uraeus is broken off).
